Beautiful little getaway
My partner and I stayed for his birthday and was greeting with a bottle of wine. The staff were lovely, the stay was amazing. If I could suggest one thing it would be to have cutlery and plates in the room

Although the room was clean, we thought is was extremely average & outdated in the decor for the price of $175 in a "budget" room for one night

we loved the pool. Nice, easy, convenient place to stay. Staff were happy and accommodating.
It would have been a lot more comfortable if the separate bedroom had aircon ...it was very hot and stuffy with just a standing fan., window opened to the car park (no breeze). Air con was in main lounge with 2 single beds .. stayed mid January .
